I just wanted to give everyone a heads up.
A friend of mine, Tyler, is having his birthday and wants to give Dagorhir a try. So 5 to 10 new people will be coming out this Sunday as part of his birthday party. I've given them a basic rules rundown and how to make some cheapo garb, which they might or might not make.
However, they will be weaponless and shieldless. I have a couple extra shields and 3 or 4 passing blues to share with them. I know we have some loaner gear, but that it is often used by the regulars.
So, if you have an old shield or blue that passes and you wouldn't mind a rookie borrowing it, please bring it this Sunday.
Darius and I will be helping teach the game to these people for the first 1/2 hour or so, but we could probably use another friendly teacher or two to speed the process up and get them on the main battlefield.
They are just coming out for this single practice (so they think), but it is a good opportunity to pick up a few more local players if they like it as much as we do.

i have a few spares that they could be loaned out. Im not aware if we have spare loaner weapons but its something to look into. If we have any its like one or two clubs the rest have been broken or in need of repair. on the shield side we might be able to pull a few extra from retirement. But, other than that it looks like slim pickings for us.
we will just have to do our best to help out i guess.

I can let someone borrow the "key sword" if they'd like to. I won't be using it for a while, anyway. That's really the only thing I have right now that's an option for people to borrow.

HEY DUKE!!!!! hi
also keeps us up to date on sunday so we know how many people are actually going to show. just in case it gets any bigger. So we keep the number in our heads and are able to get some extra gear out for them.

Thanks, guys. Will do. I'm still thinking it will be 5 to 10 people, but I'll make some calls and see if I can nail down a better estimate.
I'm sure shields will be harder to come by than weapons. Maybe I'll try to build another small punch to add to my collection.
Anybody want to come make a mess in my garage tonight for a couple hours? (The mess would be Dag gear related only.)

Alright, 2 small punches drying in my garage today. Just need to add some foam in the boss area on front and a layer over the PVC struts in the back, and drop a cover on them.

Thanks, Zerc. I'll have 4 or 5 blues they can borrow. Hopefully the weather holds out for us.

I have a couple to spare also. so we are looking at about 10-12 spare weapons it looks like we may pull out of this just fine.

Ever the helpful gentleman, ey Mili.
I'm sure a couple of your experiments can be put to good use.

Cold, but doable.
Dress in layers.
Heat up with some hard fighting.
See you there.

Well, only 2.5 showed up, but they had a great time.
Thanks for hosting King Tyler and his Crecent Moon Clan today.
